A strong choice for road, gravel and MTB riders who want low bottle weight, quick drinking flow and a design that is easy to clean.
The Elite Fly Tex 550ml gives you 550ml of cold hydration in a compact, lightweight package weighing just 51g. Its soft, squeezable technical-plastic body delivers a generous stream with light hand pressure, while the push-pull valve is easy to use when you are riding.
The 20% wider mouth makes filling easier and gives you better access for cleaning. The bottle body and cap fully disassemble, helping you wash and dry each part thoroughly between rides. A textured exterior provides a more secure hold with sweaty or gloved hands, and the recessed upper section is shaped to improve stability in the cage.
With a 74mm diameter, the Fly Tex fits standard bottle cages and is designed for road, MTB and gravel frames, including tighter-clearance setups. It uses 30% less plastic than the market average, while its BPA-free, FDA food-grade and recyclable materials make it a practical choice for regular riding. For the best fit, ensure your cage is correctly adjusted and securely holds the bottle before riding over rough ground.
